Cc590 In A Closed Space?

[HDTV4ME]

Looking To Build A Stand For My Equipment.my Paradigm Cc590 Would Be Built In With 2 In. On The Top And Sides And About 8 In. Deep At The Back.the Sides Will Go Back 12 In. So The Back Of The Speaker Has About 8 In.deep And Will Open Up To 46 Wide.i Was Wondering If This Will Effect The Sound Because Of The Rear Port?

Anybody?i'm Sure It Would Be The Same With Any Rear Ported Cc.

YES, it will affect the sound but it will probably be OK though. You may need to plug the port. We did this with my friend's CC-470 without plugging the port and it was fine, though he did have more room than that on either side, maybe 6" on either side, which I would recommend for you as well.
